Since joining The O2 team as commercial director in 2014, Sayer has overseen ticketing operations, merchandising, food and beverage and corporate sales along with securing exhibition content and overseeing Up At The O2, the roof walk attraction over the venue. Prior to joining AEG Europe, Sayer was operations director for Manchester City Football Club.

Additional appointments also announced today (Nov. 20) include operations director Danielle Kennedy-Clark, who has been named deputy general manager of the venue, and Gavin Brind, previously deputy finance director, who has been named finance director for The O2 and The SSE Arena, Wembley.

Commenting on the news, Langford said: “I’m delighted to be announcing that Steve, Danielle and Gavin will be leading The O2 from January. Their combined experience in managing this incredible venue, working alongside the senior leadership team means that the world’s busiest arena will continue to flourish.”

Sayer added: “The O2 continues to set the benchmark for the music and entertainment industry in every respect. I’m excited to be leading the venue as we further develop the customer experience and our programme, finding new ways to delight the millions of fans who visit The O2 every year”.

Despite all the controversy, a Kentucky radio station plays "Baby, It's Cold Outside" non-stop for hoursover the past weekend. John Legend told The Hollywood Reporter that hosting the Oscars is a "thankless job" but hasn't ruled out the possibility. The inescapable Cardi B markets herself to a new demographic - seniors - teaching them to dance during the latest "Carpool Karaoke." To celebrate Keith Richard's 75th birthday, USA Today has compiled a list of his "quirky quotes" over the years. To celebrate the song's 50th anniversary, Princess Cruises recruited performers like Aloe Blacc, Jack Johnson and Corinne Bailey Rae to perform "Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay" by Otis Redding. Here it is: the Weezer "Saturday Night Live" skit:

Reigning Miss USA Sarah Rose Summers, who is attending the pageant competition in Thailand, noted on social media (alongside Miss Columbia and Miss Australia) that Miss Vietnam and Miss Cambodia do not speak English and the backlash has already begun. REO Speedwagon is donating proceeds from its upcoming Jan. 12-13 performances at the Kavli Theatre at Thousand Oaks Civic Arts Plaza to those affected by the shooting at Thousand Oak, Calif.'s Borderline Bar & Grill (the show will include musical guests with ties to the area Richard Marx, Five For Fighting’s John Ondrasik, and Eddie Money). Neo-Nazis, likely in town for a rally, beat up an African-American DJ at a Seattle bar and were arrested for a hate crime. Tour buses for 98 Degrees, in town for a show, had to be moved from a Norwalk, Conn., Stop & Shop parking lot and all hell broke loose.

Honestly, this is unacceptable. Whenever 98 Degrees comes to Connecticut they should be treated like the kings they indisputably are. I'm sorry Nick. Please come back soon. https://t.co/BwsKIUSoU6 via @TheHourNews
